A service story...
I purchased my Yacht-Master on 13-Aug-2002 and after 13 years it went for service... Today it's home again and I am a happy camper... Great attention by Rolex Service Center in Marunouchi (Ginza area). Their pre-service quote was reasonable (and I understand a bit less than the USA / East Coast), the final settlement matched the quote with a 30 days turn around, and a two year guarantee.
The service center was busy... today they had four individual working the counter, all occupied, but I was in-and-out in about 30 minutes. Big thanks to the Rolex team here in Tokyo.

I am very happy with the YM...
I have a preference for white or light colored dials... The YM gets a lot of use, particularly in the hot summer months. Very comfortable on the wrist. Casey
That's a hallmark of Rolex service
While there are naysayers with regard to what Rolex represents to the man on the street, their service, to the customers, is top notch. Quick, clear and precise. That's a great YM too...one of my fav models from Rolex.
Thanks Richard...
The sale is definitely not the end of any story. I see it in the camera business were some mfgs are have gone the route of disposable consumer electronics... I can choose any camera, it's not the features so much, it's the handling... the hands-on fit &am...
Casey, this is the single Rolex I have ever considered to purchase.
The brand has never appealed to me, and I am not into owning vintage watches. The "batman" bezel piece is OK, but this YM has always been the first Rolex I would try. Still don't have one, maybe one day...
Have you tried one on...
Holding the YM in hand is a deal clincher... the weight and feel is very tactile. I am a big fan of white dials (or off white or anthracite ; )... The extra heft of the bezel is almost perfect. Based on your comment, I took a look at the Rolex GMT-Master ...
